it is a little easier to just sell your ride and get a 5spd, you can convert to 5spd when you are swapping your new motor but it just makes it a little more hassle on your part since now you have two major things going on. If this is your first swap, then I recommend you reseach some, buy a helms, study it, ask others about the 5spd swap and go from there.

i've done the auto-to-manual swap and let me tell you it was no walk in the park.
i say just get a car with a 5spd and start from there.
